No looser to be grateful!

Once I've posted a subject of discussion at myLot.com in a question, "Does an atheist have a word "thanks-giving"?" One of the responses I got gave me an answer, "Sure, why not? I am thankful for a lot of things in my life. I just don't thank a god that I don't believe in. I just thank life in general."
I was surprised by the answer! Even an atheist has that word telling us an attitude of gratitude though there could be more explanation of the phrase "life in general".

Thanks-giving, thankfulness, gratitude, to be grateful ...whatever you say is to say that life is so valuable!

Just say "Thanks!" or "Thank you" or "Thank you God", so you recognize yourself standing before the greatness of someone else! You admit it without being a looser! You show your own great dignity as well as nothing taken from yours. Yes, it's a celebration of your own great dignity as a human being in relationship with others.

Show your beauty with your grateful living. ***

Hi, all Indonesians! Have you read "Mindset Sukses"?

This is the printed version of ever launched free e-book "Mindset Sukses, Jalur Cepat Menuju Kebebasan Finansial" by Jennie S. Bev., the author. About her you can read more at her website JennieforIndonesia.com. I am reading the book now. As I know it is very excellent - though I don't finished it yet - I can't help telling you in this blog. You can read the reviews about this book in "GATRA" and "WIRAUSAHA & KEUANGAN" magazines, as reported by Jennie in her blog.

My friend Maxi Anthony told me about the book and how he always receives e-mails from Jennie. He read the book and the e-mails many times to get the points. So enthusiastic he was that I felt teased to read it. Now the book is at my side while I writing this post. And one of displaying browser pages on my PC now is Jennie's site. Maxi told me the site too where he subscribed to Jennie's articles. He told me how brilliant she is. And I want to get the idea of the woman.

It's all about "success". Jennie says in her blog, "Success is not a journey, nor a destination. It is already within you." So, what's the matter with Indonesians about this term? One question occurs in my mind for now is this: "Am I proud of Indonesia and being Indonesian?" I like to quote Jennie's to continue my reading before finishing this post:

Be the best you can, Indonesia, so we all can be proud of you. After all, like Edmund Burke said as quoted by Dinesh D’Souza, “I love my country not only because it is mine, but because it is also lovely.”

Thanks Jennie for the book and your love for all of us Indonesians. We are proud of you! God bless! ***
